I've got a new show about scams with Hesse Deni, Dan Boeckner, and @raaleh.bsky.social. This one with @jim.londoncentric.media is a great place to start. Very fun story about an eccentric mob-connected businessman's tax-avoidance scheme that involves farming snails in vacant office spaces

You know in movies where they kinda wipe their hand gently over the face of a dead guy and it closes their eyes. It would be a good gag if they did that on a guy with glasses. Either his eyes close or the glasses turn into sunglasses.

What they don't want you to know is that a single South African man controls the media. His influence is so vast that they call his app "The Everything App"

i’ve had this song in my head since we shot this this past summer. an s-tier pop song. it was so fun to learn/play it live.
Just dropped this cover of Alex Nichols' song "Pastoral Scene" on YouTube. It's such tight, well constructed jangle pop. Still a real songwriting accomplishment for him, I think!
